lyrics
We will never know what it is they did
Three hundred years simply disappeared
They put everything on to computers
Now there’s no way for us to turn them on
We will wonder what they did each year
Myths of Christmas, the fat man and baby boy
Strange food, old songs, trees brought inside the house
It’s hard to imagine now that we live underground
We have nothing in this bunker
Hold on though we have each other
There’s no singing underground
Hold on let’s make joyful sounds
Lamps are cold and often flicker
Hold my hand we’ll light each other
Hope is stolen home is nowhere
Hold on though our love is stronger
Three hundred years simply disappeared
They put everything on to computers
Now there’s no way for us to turn them on
We will wonder what they did each year
Myths of Christmas, the fat man and baby boy
Strange food, old songs, trees brought inside the house
It’s hard to imagine now that we live underground
We have nothing in this bunker
Hold on though we have each other
There’s no singing underground
Hold on let’s make joyful sounds
Lamps are cold and often flicker
Hold my hand we’ll light each other
Hope is stolen home is nowhere
Hold on though our love is stronger

Potato Flower
by The Scottish Enlightenmentsupported by 6 fans who also own “Futuristic Chrismalistic”
I hold St. Thomas as one of the most important and most underated albums of the last decade. Such an intimate yet grande album. When I found out that a follow-up was announced, I was beyond ecstatic. And the day came and I listened to 'Potato Flower'. I was speechless! Such a beautiful evolution. 'Potato Flower' hits you with a wall of slow riffs and emotion. Guitar work that makes me recall bands like Pavement, Bedhead, Low and early The National. Fortunately, what has stayed consistent were the powerful and personal lyrics. With the tragic loss of Scott Hutchinson, it warms my heart to know we still Scottish talent such as James Graham and David Moyes. This album is brilliant. And clearly one of the best albums of 2018.

Little Sleep EP
by The Scottish Enlightenmentsupported by 5 fans who also own “Futuristic Chrismalistic”
Discovered this band via their shared label with Thirty Pounds Of Bone. Folkish but not folk - another great in the line of Scottish bands that marry a musical sincerity with pop sensibility - Orange Juice, Cocteau Twins, Vaselines, Belle & Sebastian - must be all that Irn Bru.

Adventurous EP that embodies the sound of winter through crackly old piano and hope-filled songs.
